The Hempstead Town Board hns received a letter from Col. Roeasler which in part stated: "All interested parties have the privilege of an appeal to the Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors, to which all examin¬ ations and survey reports are re¬ ferred. Parties may be heard on ap¬ peal by the Board, either orally or in writing. Written communications should be addressed to the Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors, Southern Building, corner Fifteenth and H Streets, Washington, in titne to be in the possession of the said Board within three weeks from the date of this commanication. If oral hearings are desired, dates may be arranged for."
The reasons for an unfavorable re¬ port are brief:
The cost would be out of reasonable proportion to the real commerce to be benefitted; the actual benefits would be of a local rather tban a national character.—Tinies.
